Eastern Europe Entrepreneurs
I’m quite happy to say that Mike gave me a wonderful opportunity to talk about Entrepreneurship in Eastern Europe following his excellent report on Jamaican Entrepreneurship.

But it also adds a lot of stress, you have to be competitive in the shortest time available and usually with less resources.
